In Chelyabinsk, a young activist was picketing in a park with a sign that read, "Show your support or opposition towards feminism." She had a table with various items including eggs, milk, tomatoes, and glue, as well as a poster adorned with hearts. She invited the public to either express their support by placing a heart on the poster or use the products in an act of opposition.

The activist was subjected to verbal abuse and physically assaulted with milk and glue by a group of young and older individuals. One of them poured glue on her head. The incident ended with the activist in tears.
In 2023, feminists in Chelyabinsk conducted a number of peaceful protests in support of women's rights. They also hung a banner stating "The ban on abortions is the murder of women" in opposition to the proposal by Margarita Pavlova, a member of the Federal Assembly, to ban abortions.
In March, they protested against male-only spas with a banner demanding their closure. In April, Chelyabinsk women also held a picket in opposition to declaring feminism as an extremist ideology.
